Does the product have a chemical smell when you first use it?

Hello. No, I have never noticed a chemical smell at all. So far I have been very happy with this product and have not had any negative issues with it. I hope this helps.

There is a smell to it as it cures, but once it goes through the curing process it does not. I hope that helps.

It does initially. In my case, my new bottle smelled like rubber for less than a week and then the smell disappeared as I used it regularly. But its not unbearable super strong rubber stench. well, I'm on to my second one, that says something. :)

It did have a chemical scent when first opened but it went away quickly. No problem for us.

It does have a smell to it, almost like a fragrance. It's not overwhelming or all that unpleasant, but it is a bit noticeable at first. Cleanup is relatively easy. It's possible to turn it inside out to rinse and dry completely.

Not especially, just a plastic smell when you first get it. I don't notice a smell anymore

It initially has a "plastic" smell when you first remove from package but dissipates in a few days (or less). I primarily use when driving or airplane travel (and have for years) and in fact I just loaned my spare to a friend yesterday and he wants his own. The relief (I get) is worth the temporary "smell".

Not at all my experience. I love mine. I have used mine several times and no smelly issues at all. Good luck.

Mine had no smell. Chemical smells give me headaches, so I couldn't have used it if it did.

Not at all. It smells like plastic when you first open it but no smell. I keep mine outside on the porch patio

No not that I noticed. I wiped everything down with a Clorox wipe after assembly but I never noticed a smell beforehand.

To me it smelled like formaldehyde. After letting it air like the instruction suggested, the smell disappeared. I have never smelled an odor since I started using it..

Yes I too found it a little chemically at first as well. But I've experienced that with every new Coffeepot. I did the water-only brew twice before my first brew. It was still a little chemically so I did another water- only brew. This helped. The new pot smell quickly goes with regular use.

I don't recall my kettle having any smell. We washed it before using the first time and it's been fine for almost a year now.

No, it doesn't. It has a slightly moist feeling after you heat it, which feels nice, but no smell.

Not in my experience. I started using it without any preliminary "curing", and there were no fumes or odors at all.

I didn't notice a chemical smell, but then again, we didn't open it until we were at the beach with a constant breeze and have only used it at the beach so far. Again, we were in a breezy area, so there were no problems with it getting stuffy, but i wouldn't think that would be a problem anywhere because the sides are all mesh and the front opens pretty wide.
